Blur to reform!
- Dec 10, 2008
Yes - the news that all Oasis fans have been waiting for - Blur have confirmed that they are all set to reform in 2009 and will play Hyde Park, London on July 3. This will be the first time the original foursome have played together since naughty Graham Coxon left a few years back. Kinks' fan Damon Albarn has been busy being the sound behind the animated Gorillaz, working with Clash man Paul Simonon on The Good, The Bad & The Queen and resurrecting Monkey magic in time for the BBC's Beijing Olympics stings. Cheese fan Alex James has been busy on a farm somewhere, writing columns for British newspapers and trying to conduct an orchestra for a BBC reality TV series (and the less said about Fat Les and Wig Wam the better). Um, frankly I don't know what drum fan Dave Rowntree has been up. But I bet he's glad he's got some big dates in his diary now for 2009.
Tickets are on sale from 9am GMT on Friday 12 December from livenation.co.uk.
If this doesn't make some Blur fan happy enough for Christmas, then how about a promo of The Kinks' CD boxset, tickets to see the Ian Dury play or The Clash book, CD & DVD?
